While I don't have much experience with asp myself, I think Carol's assesment of it is fairly accurate. Most corporations will be using asp over php so if you're wanting a job in the corporate environment, you may want to learn asp.
As far as preference and functionality - I'm a PHP guy. I can do alot with PHP. Not that I couldn't do with asp, but the learning curve and expenses involved with asp aren't within my timeframe and budget. I don't pirate software.
PHP for me was easy to pick up and start building stuff with it.
I agree with Frike on these statements "fast, open source, many functions, more support, more code snippets - php has everything!" (some alterations).
Do what you feel comfortable with. They'll both do the same thing in my opinion. |
